How about:

http://www.xda-developers.com/android/how-to-root-the-htc-desire-hd/

:)

It's as easy as "download -> run" and it works brilliantly!

I suggest, instead of doing it on Windows and dealing with all them complications, just booting a Ubuntu Live CD (it's not as bad as it sounds, I actually liked it the first time I tried it and now I have it installed by my Windows) and just run the command:

in terminal, press "1" and be afk for 5 mins.

Doesn't erase your data, doesn't format your phone, doesn't downgrade your Android OS.

What it DOES do is:

Automagically turn your sdcard into a goldcard

Set Radio S-OFF

Set SuperCID

Remove Carrier SIMLOCK

Install Clockworkmod Recovery

Root the phone

Install RomManager

Install Superuser

Good luck with it :)

I agree. I was on gingerbread stock using the ota update. The ace hack kit featured in the link is the way to go.

Now I'm using ARHD 6.1.4 Rom.
[Desire HD General] M@jkel:
I also rooted my Gingerbread (HTC's release 2.50.x) using Advance Hack Kit mentioned earlier. Worked like a charm, no data lost, perfectly rooted in under 5minutes.

You don't need to downgrade if you use Advanced Hack Kit http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=952352&page=200

Hack kit is working perfectly! It includes Downgrade/Root/S-Off in practicly one click. Afther that you just need to do ENG S-Off and you're good to go with ROM & Radio flashing ;)

Thank you!!!!
[HTC Inspire 4G] gho5t82:
First of i want to thank the many people on here that have tried to help me fix my problem, from the PM's to the replies in various topics i posted on. Let me refresh you of what was going on. My screen would turn on by itself and turn off after 10 or so seconds and turn on Car Mode while doing this. This would happen at random times, but lately it would do it continuously. It would turn for 10 seconds or so, turn off, then turn right back thus draining my battery in a matter of an hour or so. Also, with this problem the speakerphone would be on by default when i received/made a call since the phone thought it was in car mode. This would annoy the piss outta me!!! I had traded my iphone 4 for the inspire and found myself wondering WTF did i just do. The phone had worked great when i received it. It had the Ingersoll Rom on it but I had wanted something with more eye candy so i installed Coredroid. It seemed like after i had done this, my problems had started...

I installed just about every ROM i found on XDA to see if it was a problem with a flash or something. No Luck. I began to google my problem and found it to be quite common and wasn't related to a specific ROM at all, but no one seemed to have a fix for it. To me it seemed the phone was almost shorting out. So i thought the connection in the usb port was jacked up. I ended up shoving a USB cable from monoprice in and bending it upwards. I suspected that this cable was the culprit so i didnt care if I bent the **** out of it. It worked for maybe 5 minutes or so. That was a big step for me! So after that i decided to use a small flat head screw driver. I took out the battery, micro sd and sim card. I laid the phone screen up on my desk and stuck the screwdriver in the bottom of the usb port and pried up on it rather hard. By the bottom i mean the on the bottom side of the 5 connectors. Thats all! My phone is rock solid again and i don't have to use my Upgrade, which took effect today lol. I am not sure if this is a permanent fix or not and i take NO responsibility if you try this and end up f@cking your phone up. Sorry for the long read.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fscussel:
I´ve just bought a Vibrant Galaxy S and I was thinking in updating it to gingerbread. First I thought there was an official release since most of the galaxy s have gingerbread now but to my surprise no gb for Vibrant. After reading this forum I have come to no conclusion whether I should update to 2.3.4 by using CyanogenMOD because if I read it correct it seems:

1) that Cya 7 drains battery faster than samsung stock 2.2 rom.

2) Also, it seems that all the samsung stock apps doesn´t come with Cya7. What app does it comes with for SMS, dialing, etc?

3) Why can´t you use roms from Samfirmware.com, there´s a I9000BVJJW4 2.3.3 there, is it incompatible with Vibrant?

4) What about the Dark Rom which also features 2.3.4, what´s the main difference from cyanogen? does it comes with touchwiz?

Thank you guys.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xriderx66:
1- yes it does. thats the catch that comes with speed and performance.

2- Yes, it comes with SMS, dialing etc. IT doesn't come with the samsung music player, but the default one that google made. You will have to flash GAPPS after CM7 to get the Market, and the other stufff.

3-I9000 is another phone. We are T959

4- i cant answer that because idk

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jasonhunterx:
Well I would say use TW roms mix between speed an battery aan HW browser is nice once it gets better kernel then it will be better but if u want straight battery froyo CM7 is stock so no TW its just raw speed only thing bad is that browser sucks without HW

Why gingerbread?? Its .1 more.

Sent from a cell tower to the XDA server to you.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shreddintyres:
Its the same reason we were clammoring for froyo from eclair, but aside from that its the latest and greatest software, i will say that CM based roms are by far the smoothest my phone has ever been and if you are truly worried about battery life read up on the kernels you can add like bali and glitch then undervolt and you can get pretty good battery life or atleast comparable to stock. I personally get about 14-20 hours depending on my usage in a day. Typical day consists of several 100 texts 2-3 20-30 minute phone calls, maybe total 1 hour browsing and other miscellaneous use.

Anyway to get into stock recovery without working volume buttons?
[HTC Inspire 4G] trev869:
Can you boot the phone? If so, use Rom Manager to boot into recovery from the main options menu.
[HTC Inspire 4G] nhshah7:
not sure if this will work as he says he's on stock. unless it's stock rooted by attn1 that is.

otherwise, if you have the android sdk and/or adb installed, you can just pass open a command prompt in the folder with adb and connect your phone over usb (make sure debugging mode is enabled via settings --> apps --> development). then in the command prompt, simply type adb reboot recovery.

hope tihs helps
[HTC Inspire 4G] Irish Enigma:
Even when you use ROM manager to boot into recovery how are you going to use recovery without your volume buttons working?
[HTC Inspire 4G] 39FarmallM:
As long as the power (enter) button works, you ate okay. The menu softkey will scroll down and the return will take you back one menu.

Edit: are okay :-)
[HTC Inspire 4G] RickEphraims:
Tried that and all you get is the rom manager picture in the middle of the screen.

What version has those options in it ?
[HTC Inspire 4G] RickEphraims:
Have found a program in Desire HD development.

You can change your recovery.

Volume buttons not needed....
[HTC Inspire 4G] gatonico:
Yes with adb command line, in the PC typing "adb reboot recovery", this method working very fine too if your phone stuck in boot loop and the volume keys not working, for this problem the steps are:

1. remove battery

2. insert battery and put the cover

3. conect the usb cable to pc and phone

4. waiting 10 seconds and with adb command line in the PC typing "adb reboot recovery" and the phone restart in recovery mode and here you navigate with the touch buttons home= up menu=down search=enter

Anyone else notice lighter blobs on their screen when a black app is loaded?

Try the night clock and tell me if you see any.

I use my phone as a clock at night and I just got this today and wow is it noticeable.
[Galaxy S II General] EarlZ:
I also had that issue on my first unit, I had it replaced.

A quite bellow summarizes all the screen issues on the S2.
[Galaxy S II General] groaner:
Thanks!

I'll have to get back there to have it replaced.
[Galaxy S II General] groaner:
I've had it replaced 3 times now, I'm on my 4th unit. I can exchange one more time before I have to send it out for repairs.

I'll wait for them to get a new shipment in with different serial numbers (all the ones i've had start with the same 4 digits) and hope i get clean ones.

I called Samsung and the rep i spoke to told me that they have not heard of this issue.

Well they have 3 units in their back room with this issue so they will see it.

I think I will have to take a long-exposure photo to show them what the issue is.

Fingers crossed the next shipment is clear.
[Galaxy S II General] EarlZ:
I've seen this isseu quite often when I had my phone exchanged mainly for a different screen defect, just be warned though since you had so many exchanges some people here might not actually believe that you went through 4 phones because 6Million phones sold and all that jazz.

Good idea that you decided to wait for another shipping, maybe you can even get a refund and just buy from another store that has good stocks?
[Galaxy S II General] groaner:
I don't care what other believe or not. If they want to see my receipt plus the 2 exchange receipts I have here in this bag beside me I'll send them a picture.

Regardless, I must be one of the few people who have this screen problem AND use the phone as a night clock.

I am posting this for information to anyone who also has experienced or may wonder if their phone also has this issue.

If you dont have it, GREAT! I wish I had your phone.

(ps, this isnt a rant, just want this to be over)
[Galaxy S II General] bruflot:
I have zero issues with my screen; no ghosting, yellow/pink tint, light bolbs etc.

but no one believes me :mad:
[Galaxy S II General] BarryH_GEG:
Someone else in Canada (Toronto) went through five phones because of tinting issues with the display. He too exchanged them back-to-back from the same store. If you've been going to the same store, and there was a run of bad displays, all the phones built in sequence could be effected. Can't you go to a different store and exchange it there?
[Galaxy S II General] Nivekius:
Have the same problem, its like blobs/smudges that are lighter black/greyish. Not an even black color.

Its best noticeable in a dark room without any other light, not even the light of the touch buttons or top bar active (so your eyes are adjusted to seeing in the dark). Using this image I can see it clearly. Auto adjust screen power doesn't influence it.
[Galaxy S II General] BarryH_GEG:
I think we all may have blobs to varying degrees. The other day I looked at my screen in bright sunlight with polarized sunglasses on. It made the screen look black but you could clearly see random beige blotches all over it. In normal use I think my screen is as close to perfect as there is and when looking at a black background in the dark I don't see blobs or blotches. The "O" in AMOLED stands for organic which means alive. Maybe what we're seeing is a by product of the technology.
[Galaxy S II General] groaner:
You got it too!

Well, i'm glad I'm not alone :) sorry that you have it too.

Hopefully I will get a call from the store when the new shipment comes in and the issue will go away.

I tried going to another store and was told DOA's could not be exchanged at other stores that they had to go back to the store it was purchased at. :(

It is likely that all phones at Bell at all the stores at the same time may well come from the same batch.

I can wait over the weekend. I bought it on the 1st so still have most of my 30 day period to do the exchange. after that its repairs only. trying to avoid that.

I tried to get back the first one I had as it didn't have it as bad as all the subsequent ones I've had. Once a phone is marked DOA it can not be resold until it has been reconditioned and put back through the system. Understandable.
[Galaxy S II General] groaner:
I agree and I can accept some imperfections but I'd like to get as close to "perfect" as I can seeing that I had it in the beginning (WHY didnt I keep the first one?!)

Oh well, I'll take what I get with the new shipment and be happy with it,unless there is functional issues, then I'll be :mad:
[Galaxy S II General] Nivekius:
Well good you don't see any blobs or perhaps you are suffering from a certain degree of Nyctalopia. Sometimes a disorder is not bad, see no evil ;)... Nonetheless the O in AMOLED doesn't stand for alive, just for a chemical compound containing molecules with carbon.

I must add that two Galaxy S (i9000) models I have looked at don't have this issue, at all. The screens are fully and equally the same black tint/shade. Taking a picture to capture the problem has proven to be somewhat difficult, but this old camera probably isn't really anything to write home about these days.
[Galaxy S II General] BarryH_GEG:
OCD is also a recognized disorder in which the pursuit of perfection overtakes one's life. If I had problems with my phone I'd have no problem sharing them. I've posted tons of pics of my phone in the dark, in the light, on grey, showing apps, and at every brightness level between 0% and 100%. I'm not going to apologize because I have a decent screen. Though I do sympathize with those that aren't satisfied for whatever the reason.
[Galaxy S II General] groaner:
I dream of having a phone like yours.

I'm glad that all i have are these splotches on the screen in the darkness. it is not viewable at any other time and all other functions of the phone are perfect.

I can live with the splotches if i have to but would prefer to not. I'll exchange one more time and leave it.
[Galaxy S II General] BarryH_GEG:
I'm sure I'm not special. If you look at the low level of participation in the display threads either people have low standards or the majority of phones are like mine. Even within the display threads, 50% of the posts are by the same dozen or so people. In the other Canadian display thread a bunch of people from Toronto posted they had no problems. So keep spinning the wheel, you're bound to get lucky. ;)
[Galaxy S II General] Nivekius:
Obsessive–compulsive disorder is not how you describe it, perfectionism is. Some more of this perfectionism for a company like Samsung would not be bad at all.

It was not meant to be taken seriously anyway (hence the smiley). Albeit a joke, people whom suffer from night blindness will of course not see this particular issue though.

While I believe I did not post in the other display problem threads. I do have yellow tint and pink/blueish shade from all angles except from front. Which of course doesn't make it sound like a decent and proper SAMOLED+ display at all. Since I have a Galaxy S that doesn't exhibit these problems, it of course makes me a little disappointed.
[Galaxy S II General] BarryH_GEG:
I wasn't attacking you, just having a little fun trading disorders. I actually considered myself anal retentive until I started participating in this forum. ;-)
[Galaxy S II General] Nivekius:
The anal stage, hmm no let's just leave Freud there. He doesn't have blops on his screen anyway.

I can not exchange my phone, probably because it was included for "free" with a Vodafone plan, even though I just have it a couple of days. The shop implied I could sent it in for repair but I am reluctant to do that for various reasons.
[Galaxy S II General] EarlZ:
Not all phones are affected with the same assortment of issues but I find it hard to believe that your phone does not have any ghosting, its an limitation on the SAMOLED+, Im not saying your lying but I dont believe that claim either. For the yellow banding on the left side user to user and phone to phone subjective.

One of my thoughts also point to that a lot of S2 owners are first time users of SAMOLED screens, hence they dont know what to expect or have an entire low level of expectations. The S2 is my 3rd phone with a SAMOLED based technology and pretty much the expectation should be higher than the first generation SAMOLED right?

But all people say that these defects are expected are we are the minority as millions and millions of phones getting sold but theres no "internet media coverage" about it and they start bringing in other phones as a comparison when the only comparison needed is the previous generation SAMOLED.

I was initially very disappointed on this until I had my phone exchanged (Had to sort out over a dozen phones) and also XXKGx firmware alleviated the yellow banding, right now Im happy with what I got but I can be happier if the quality on the SAMOLED+ surpassed the first generation, The regular SAMOLED is superior in every way even if it was pentile. I just gotta hope for the best when the SGS3 and SAMOLED HD comes out.

This could also be a possible reason why Samsung has never said anything about the display issues on the S2, a lot of shops are refusing exchanges and sending customers to the service center and have repairs instead, probably Samsung has informed its retail channel that they will be replacing deadpixels only anything should be dealt with by the retailer.. well just a conspiracy theory =)
[Galaxy S II General] derringdo:
I'm on my 2nd phone with display issues (3rd phone overall). The 1st one kept restarting on its own, so I exchanged it. The 2nd one had a vertical line running through the screen visible on low brightness so I exchanged that one for my 3rd. The 3rd is even worse: there are 3 faint vertical lines running through the screen on anything but the highest brightness, and on top of that the colours seem washed out.

Bell new refuses to exchange this last one because I've "hit my limit for exchanges". Has anyone else heard about this? It sounds like the OP has had more exchanges than I have, but the employee at the Bell store refused to budge, saying he it was a limitation of the system that wouldn't let him swap another device on my account.
[Galaxy S II General] EarlZ:
Try to talk about it with a local samsung service center, the store where I got it from refused me after the 2nd replacement even if they clearly saw the screen defect. Im currently on my 3rd phone and I also have the light blobs, more like really faint white splashes, looks like water that dried beneath the glass, the screen has no other issues this time around which made me partially happy, but gonna try for the 4th replacement if not ill get a refund and re-buy in a few months.
[Galaxy S II General] SugarySnack:
I have very slight "blobs" but I can only see them in pitch black and the phone is in night mode. My zune HD had the same thing and I think it might be an OLED "problem". Doesn't bother me in the slightest as I don't use it as a clock at night.
